Waco, TX— Kansas (19-7, 10-6 Big 12) came into the Ferrell Center looking for revenge over Baylor (23-5, 13-3 Big 12); NaLyssa Smith made sure that would not happen.
Smith made her final bucket with 16 seconds left to secure the Bears’ 85-77 victory over the Jayhawks. It gave her a career high of 33 points on 13-of-23 shooting and she added 16 rebounds in playing all 40 minutes.
